yes, chop blocks should be any combination of high/low block simultaneous or not. low-low should be legal. i think the current rule is asinine and obviously made by people that never played defensive line. haha

No, it's not that, just an attempt to get at the mechanics of those hits likeliest to injure knees. The belief is that while a player is engaged in contact, one or both legs are pushing against the ground, loading the associated knee ligaments in such a way as to make them vulnerable to rapid displacement of the leg or thigh.
